Can't open JPEG attachments
All of a sudden, my Outlook Express email will not open .jpg attachments. It
will open adobe, .pps, .wmv and others, though. I can save the attachment and then open it, but it used to open as soon as I clicked on the attachment. Can someone help, Thank You, -- George Jurak |

Can't open JPEG attachments
When you save it as an attachment, what program does it open with?
Save the attachment to your HDD. Right click on it and Open With | Choose Program. Find and choose a program that works and then check the box: Always use this program to open this kind of file. This should enable you to open these attachments in the future. -- Bruce Hagen MS-MVP [Mail] Imperial Beach, CA "George Jurak" wrote in message ...

Windows version? IE version? What happens when you try to open a JPG
attachment? -- ~Robear Dyer (PA Bear) MS MVP-IE, Mail, Security, Windows Client - since 2002 George Jurak wrote: All of a sudden, my Outlook Express email will not open .jpg attachments.

Can't open JPEG attachments
Bruce, sorry, I'm not sure it I understand what you mean by HDD. I can't find
a box that says "Always". Could you please elaborate. Sorry, i am not so computer literate. When I save the attachment on my desk top and then click on it, it opens with windows picture and fax viewer, which is what I want. I hope this helps. -- George Jurak "Bruce Hagen" wrote: You're welcome & thanks for posting back. -- Bruce Hagen MS-MVP [Mail] Imperial Beach, CA "George Jurak" wrote in message ... Thank you, Bruce.

Can't open JPEG attachments
I thought you had it resolved with your last reply. HDD = Hard Drive Disk.
Since you already saves a jpg attachment, right click on that saved attachment and select Open With | Choose Program. Select: Windows Picture and Fax Viewer and at the bottom is the "Always use........" box. -- Bruce Hagen MS-MVP [Mail] Imperial Beach, CA "George Jurak" wrote in message ...

Can't open JPEG attachments
Bruce, I did what you said and there is NO "always use" box once I open with
Windows Picture and Fax Viewer. Here is a bit of info that I just discovered : If I save the attachment to my computer, open it, close it and then go back to my email and click onn the attachment, then it will open!! But if i remove the saved jpg from my computer and go back to my email and try to to open it....it will not!! Strangest thing I have ever seen. Does this help?? -- George Jurak "Bruce Hagen" wrote: I thought you had it resolved with your last reply. HDD = Hard Drive Disk.

Can't open JPEG attachments
I am using Windows XP. I don't know how to find what version of IE I am using.
When I click on the attachment a Hour glass comes up for a split second and then nothing happens. If I save the attachment to my computer, open it and then close it and then go back to my email and click on attachment, then it will open. But, if i remove the saved jpg from my computer and go back to my email and click on attachment, then nothing happens again!! -- George Jurak "PA Bear [MS MVP]" wrote: Windows version? IE version?

You've got the cart in front of the donkey. Don't open the attachment. Right
click on the saved attachment. In the drop-down list, click Chose Program and then Open With and you will see this. http://i44.tinypic.com/2h3r6gi.gif Select Windows Picture and Fax Viewer /there/ and check the Always Use box at the bottom left. -- Bruce Hagen MS-MVP [Mail] Imperial Beach, CA "George Jurak" wrote in message ...
